Instructions

  • In a food processor or by hand, finely crush cookies. Add cream cheese and mix until evenly combined (filling should have a fudgy texture and appearance). Shape into 36 (1-inch) balls. Freeze 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, set Andes Candies in a bowl over a pot of simmering water (double-boiler method) or melt in the microwave at 50% power in 30-second increments.
  • Using a toothpick or a spoon, carefully roll chilled balls in melted Andes candies. Place in single layer in baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm.
  • To make the green candy drizzle, set white candy melts in a bowl over a pot of simmering water (double-boiler method) or melt in the microwave at 50% power in 30-second increments. Carefully stir in a few drops of green food color to create a minty green color.
  • Using a small plastic bag with the corner snipped off or a spoon, carefully drizzle the green chocolate over the chilled truffles. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes longer.

Notes

  1. Candy melts: If you find green candy melts, you can skip the food coloring.
  2. Yield: This recipe will make about 36 cookie balls depending on exactly what size you roll them.
  3. Storage: Store these covered in the refrigerator (or on your patio in winter if you live in a cold climate) for 3 to 4 weeks.
  4. Freezer: Freeze in an airtight container for up to 4 months. Thaw at room temperature.
